RE: [cdt-dev] Cancelling a 'rogue' make
|
You might see this bug:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=178144
Try to remove the recommended code in ProcessClosure#terminate(). My
experience is that the Job will terminate OK but any child processes
that have frozen will still run.

Subject: [cdt-dev] Cancelling a 'rogue' make
Hi,
I managed to create a makefile that called itself recursively and so
entered an infinite loop. Doh.
However, I couldn't find a way through the Eclipse UI to kill the make.
Cancel does nothing... In fact I had to switch the whole machine off to
recover (machine became so unresponsive that even Windows taskmgr
wouldn't start).
So, my questions:
- Is there a way to 'kill' a rogue process when cancelling a progress
monitor?
- If not, shouldn't there be?
p.s. I know this is user error in creating a bad makefile, but it does
happen. I was investigating a user complaint where the compiler got
itself into an infinite loop, with similar consequences to above.
Thanks,
--
Derek
